How does absorption spectra occur?

Physics
1 answer:
Arlecino [84]3 years ago
3 0

An absorption spectrum occurs when light passes through a cold, dilute gas and atoms in the gas absorb at characteristic frequencies; since the re-emitted light is unlikely to be emitted in the same direction as the absorbed photon, this gives rise to dark lines (absence of light) in the spectrum.

hope this helped :)

Suppose that a wind is blowing in the direction S45°E at a speed of 30 km/h. A pilot is steering a plane in the direction N60°E
Kay [80]

Answer:

The true course: 40.29^\circ north of east

The ground speed of the plane: 96.68 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

  • V_w = velocity of wind = 30\ km/h\ S45^\circ E = (30\cos 45^\circ\ \hat{i}-30\sin 45^\circ\ \hat{j})\ km/h = (21.21\ \hat{i}-21.21\ \hat{j})\ km/h
  • V_p = velocity of plane in still air = 100\ km/h\ N60^\circ E = (100\cos 60^\circ\ \hat{i}+100\sin 60^\circ\ \hat{j})\ km/h = (50\ \hat{i}+86.60\ \hat{j})\ km/h

Assume:

  • V_r = resultant velocity of the plane
  • \theta = direction of the plane with the east

Since the resultant is the vector addition of all the vectors. So, the resultant velocity of the plane will be the vector sum of the wind velocity and the plane velocity in still air.

\therefore V_r = V_p+V_w\\\Rightarrow V_r = (50\ \hat{i}+86.60\ \hat{j})\ km/h+(21.21\ \hat{i}-21.21\ \hat{j})\ km/h\\\Rightarrow V_r = (71.21\ \hat{i}+65.39\ \hat{j})\ km/h

Let us find the direction of this resultant velocity with respect to east direction:

\theta = \tan^{-1}(\dfrac{65.39}{71.21})\\\Rightarrow \theta = 40.29^\circ

This means the the true course of the plane is in the direction of 40.29^\circ north of east.

The ground speed will be the magnitude of the resultant velocity of the plane.

\therefore Magnitude = \sqrt{71.21^2+65.39^2} = 96.68\ km/h

Hence, the ground speed of the plane is 96.68 km/h.

For Mass

K.E = (1/2*mv^2)

Explanation:

Kinetic energy (KE) is equal to half of an object's mass (1/2*m) multiplied by the velocity squared. For example, if a an object with a mass of 10 kg (m = 10 kg) is moving at a velocity of 5 meters per second (v = 5 m/s), the kinetic energy is equal to 125 Joules, or (1/2 * 10 kg) * 5 m/s2.

The graph above shows the position and time calculate the velocity of the particle from T=0s to T=4s?
zzz [600]

Answer:

The velocity of the particle from T = 0 s to T = 4 s is;

0.5 m/s

Explanation:

The given parameters from the graph are;

The initial displacement (covered) at time, t₁ = 0 s is x₁ = 1 m

The displacement covered at time, t₂ = 4 s is x₂ = 3 m

The graph of distance to time, from time t = 0 to time t = 4 is a straight line graph, with the velocity given by the rate of change of the displacement to the time which is dx/dt which is also the slope of the graph given as follows;

The \ slope \ of \ the \ displacement \ time \ graph, \ m =velocity, \ v= \dfrac{x_2 - x_1}{t_2 - t_1}

Therefore, \ the \ velocity \ of \ the \ particle \ v  = \dfrac{3 \  m - 1 \ m}{4 \ s - 0 \ s}  = \dfrac{2 \ m}{4 \  s} = \dfrac{1}{2} \ m/s

The velocity of the particle from t = 0 s to t  = 4 s = 1/2 m/s = 0.5 m/s.
